So we did eventually get answers to all the "things we still don't know" for Ep 2 except for when exactly Jim left Scranton and how he and Pam acted. My personal headcanon is Jim took all his vacation/sick days and left as under-the-radar as he could (according to Paul Lieberstein Jim didn't go to Australia so not like he needed time off for that). There's no way he could have faced Pam mere days after CN.


Author's Response: Agreed. This transitional period drives me nuts! There are so many things I want to know. Was Jim already set to transfer on Casino Night? I'm pretty sure that's what he intended to tell Pam before he dropped his confession.
